India recovered from 112/6 to chase down New Zealand’s target of 181 in Christchurch.

Pollard was part of the Mumbai Indians squad for all five of their IPL title-winning campaigns, in 2013, 2015, 2017, 2019 and 2020.

India chased down the target of 198 with 22.5 overs to spare, with Rawal remaining unbeaten on 100 off 96 balls and Shafali scoring 64 not out off just 33 deliveries.

The Men in Blue chased down 226 to record their highest-ever successful run chase in T20I history.

The opening ODI of the three match series will begin on Friday at the BCA Stadium in Kotambi.

India begin their all-format tour of New Zealand with the first T20I in Christchurch on October 22.

Kaur's unbeaten 91 off 41 balls, featuring 10 fours and five sixes at a strike rate of 221.95, helped India complete a 3-0 T20I series sweep.

The 92-run margin is India's biggest victory by runs at home in women's T20 internationals.

Rain then a soggy outfield wiped out the first two sessions but sunshine helped to restart play and a gritty 30.4 overs came about.

The BCCI said interim head Ojha will chair the committee based on seniority.

With the win, India has taken an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series.

India reach 118/5 in 7.4 overs in a rain-shortened contest, with Ishan Kishan and Naman Dhir providing late fireworks.

With this, the former Sri Lanka captain’s decade-long association with Mumbai Indians comes to an end, having guided the franchise to three of their five IPL titles.
